they will come to an end;
as for languages, they will cease;
as for knowledge, it will come to an end.
9 For we know in part,
and we prophesy in part.
10 But when the perfect comes,

When I became a man,

12 For now we see indistinctly,[a] as in a mirror,[b]
but then face to face.(B)
Now I know in part,
but then I will know fully,(C)
as I am fully known.(D)
